Ubuntu 14.04 – Trusty Tahr, 32 & 64 bits

On the DVD

This month, on our double-sided disk, we have the newest version of Ubuntu, 14.04 – Trusty Tahr. Trusty is the most mature and stable version of Ubuntu to date and comes with the latest and greatest Free Software.

Side A comes with the 32-bit version of Trusty, ideal for older machines or if you have compatibility problems with libraries or apps.

On side B, you'll find the 64-bit version of Ubuntu. This will work better on more modern machines and will deliver a faster and more optimized experience. If in doubt, try this version first.

Double-Sided DVD

This DVD is a double-sided disc. A DVD device always reads the side of the disc that is facing down. This DVD is labeled conventionally – the label you see as you place the disc into the tray applies to the data on the opposite side. If you are installing Kubuntu, the Kubuntu label should be facing up in the tray.
